On Saturday night, two teenagers were shot near Millennium Park in downtown Chicago leading to a large police presence. Fifteen people were arrested after groups of young adults and juveniles were reported to engage in reckless and disruptive behavior. The victims were transported to Northwestern Hospital in fair condition, and the investigations are currently ongoing with no suspects in custody. Most charges were for reckless conduct except for a 16-year-old boy who was charged with unlawful use of a weapon and a firearm was seized by the police. An adult and a juvenile were also charged with possession of a stolen vehicle. Mayor Lori Lightfoot expressed her determination not to allow any of Chicago’s public spaces to become a platform for criminal activity, urging parents and guardians to know their children’s whereabouts and be accountable for their actions. Mayor-elect Brandon Johnson disapproved of the destructive behavior, and although not blaming the youth, called on the Chicago community to create safe and supervised spaces that prevent crime from being attracted to the city streets.
